The fourth of six booklets designed as a guide for energy management in hospitals. It aims to give practical assistance to the technical hospital staff, with the intent to reduce electricity cost, describing possibilities for an efficient and cost-saving use of energy in hospitals.
The third of six booklets designed as a guide for energy management in hospitals. It focuses on the requirements of the various zones of a hospital, and how they can be met in an energy efficient way, by means of heating, ventilating, air conditioning systems.
The second of six booklets designed as a guide for energy management in hospitals. Its main objectives are to provide a sound basis for the approach of thermal energy management, including both heat and cold generation; it is divided into three main parts: heat generation, heat distribution, coldgeneration and distribution.
In this paper a short term testing methodology is developed to evaluate the performance of ventilation systems with respect to control of indoor air pollutants. Two efficiency measures, displacement efficiency and removal efficiency, are defined based upon analysis of mass transport into and out of a specified control volume. These new efficiency measures are applied to the analysis of a ceiling based ventilation system and comparisons are made with age of air and pollutant removal effectiveness concepts.
